Allen & Gledhill, one of Singapore’s largest and longest-standing local firms, has launched a new office in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, a move into one of the fastest-growing economies in Southeast Asia.

The office in Ho Chi Minh City is headed by partner Oh Hsiu-Hau, who has practiced at Allen & Gledhill for over two decades and is also the director of the firm’s Myanmar office.* The Ho Chi Minh City office will initially be staffed by a team of 10 locally and foreign-qualified lawyers.
